w, tere are a few major systems out ther that runs utf-18, such as at least OS X and IOS. The 30112 i18n locale is actually proven technology, and has been used in Linux implementations for something like 20 years. Many hundreds of locales have been built on it. Best regards Keld

But I cannot tell what needs there are out there in the marketplace for other encodings. POSIX has machinery to handle all of this, so I think it is good that this capability is there. best regards keld

Well, the digits in other scripts are ordered consequetively, so the calculation could easily be done, for the scripts I previously documented, as prescribed in ISO 14652. This is not rocket science.

find proposals for that providing efficient implementations. > > 1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-8 Oh, well. You should be able to implement efficient code for the specs from 14652 and 30112, one would be that you, after testing for isdigit, the you index into a 4-bit table with the binary value corresponding to the digit character. This is probably on par speedwise with subtracting the value for zero. Best regards keld
